About
Dr. Alexandra I. Stavrakis is a leading orthopedic surgeon and researcher whose work centers on the application of advanced technology in joint replacement surgery, particularly total hip and knee arthroplasty. Her major contributions lie in critically evaluating the real-world impact of computer-assisted navigation and robotic assistance on surgical outcomes. A landmark study, cited 39 times, examined national trends and patient factors in technology-assisted total hip arthroplasty (TA-THA) from 2005 to 2014, revealing significant shifts in practice patterns. Dr. Stavrakis has also tackled the crucial question of whether these technologies provide meaningful clinical benefits, with her 2022 paper (36 citations) investigating whether navigated and robot-assisted total knee arthroplasty outcomes achieve the minimal clinically important difference. Her most recent work (2025) explores the precision of automated versus manual femoral component rotation planning. By rigorously analyzing large datasets and focusing on patient-centered outcomes, Dr. Stavrakis provides essential evidence that guides surgeons in adopting technology to improve surgical precision and patient recovery.
